Fellow SRQ’ers:

On behalf of the Board, I want to thank the membership for its overwhelming affirmation of the renovation proposal. Now the hard work begins. Alden is working on the construction plans as some items need immediate attention. We are now on to the fundraising. We need to complete this within the next 30 days. Doing so will allow us the most flexibility in getting the schedule we want with the runway contractor. Please recall that the work needs to be completed before the return of the rainy season early next year, so there is some urgency in obtaining the necessary funds. I will be updating you weekly with progress and reminders to get you contributions in person, by mail or by PayPal. As we are soliciting voluntary contributions, the Board would like to acknowledge everyone’s participation at one of the levels as follows:

                $100 - $400        Patron

                $401 - $700        Silver level

                $701 and above Gold level

 Additionally, contributions of $5000 or more (Platinum level) will entitle the donor to SRQ Lifetime membership. Individual amounts contributed will not be visible to other members unless you so desire. We will simply list the total number of Patron, Silver and Gold contributors, respectively.

Thanks to everyone in advance for making this worthwhile endeavor possible.

 

Anthony Lassiter

SRQ President
